Day 25: Our Practice in Humility
When was the last time you acted in a way that was truly humble? What was that experience like for you?

When was the last time you acted in a way that was truly humble? What was that experience like for you?
It’s a little scary to look inward and face our own fickleness and frustration, but God is calling each of us into friendship. Our journey during Holy Week is the perfect time to answer that call.
Our call in justice work is to be other-centered, not self-centered—ensuring that the needs of the community are prioritized above our own desires to serve.
Sign up now to connect with the Jesuit network and learn how you can learn, educate, pray, and advocate for justice year-round.
